Laminated Quilt Maple top

You asked and so you shall receive. Our two most popular semi-hollows are now available with a laminated quilt maple top for a vintage-inspired visual feast.

Seymour Duncan 59’s with Coil-Splitting

Equal parts rich and clear across the tonal spectrum, USA Seymour Duncan 59 humbuckers offer vintage-inspired tones and remarkable articulation. Paired with coil-splitting push/pull tone knobs for maximum versatility.

Throwback Scroll-style Headstock

Featuring our Throwback Scroll-style Headstock shape, the Excel SS XT pays homage to the early days of John D’Angelico’s work, including 7-ply purfling and our throwback Excel Series inlay.
